I bike commute in rush hour city traffic. As I've written elsewhere, I pass messengers between lights, they pass me at lights. The video mentioned on Josh Rubin's site is a helmet-cam view of a race, messenger-style, through Manhattan.

Josh Rubin: Cool Hunting: A Cyclist's View: "Ever see a bicycle messenger hurling down a Manhattan street, dodging pedestrians and threading the needle between a bus and a stupid stretch Hummer? If you think it looks crazy from the safety of your cab, just imagine what it's like from the messenger's perspective. Lucas Brunelle mounted a camera to his helmet and made an incredible little video that gives you just that."
